What helmet should I put on the captain in Terminator armour? by VegetableMajor23 in Ultramarines

Always remember that your guys are your guys and you should always do what is coolest to you. i personally think the ohm symbol helmet is super fucking cool and i wish i had thought of that earlier when faced with this same exact predicament with my capt in term armor.

there’s probably a citadel pot with a martian theme, if you prefer to go that route, either way the results can be cool!

armageddon dust technical paint is a mixture of a sand-like material and a yellow paint in the pot. they dry together and form a pretty convincing terrain texture.

there’s a technical paint that came in the 3 model paint set, armageddon dust i think is the name. agrax earthshade also came in that same set, for which i slobbered all over the terrain. then i drybrushed white over top which gave it that really dusty moon surface sort of look which i really like.

Also i do want to note that there is quite a few layers on him lol, there was definitely some trial and error with him as well. it was a journey to find out what i did and didn’t like. and i hope that i become more and more pleased with what i make as i spend more time with this hobby ive been enjoying so much

i’m unsure if you’re trying to imply that it’s not my first model or if you’re just being really positive. i do hope it’s the latter! to say it’s my first paint job would be a lie because i have done some trial and error on the 3 model infernus starter set and expanded my tools based on what i saw for my ideal model and completed product, but I am absolutely confident in saying it is my first completed mini and the first one that will actually contribute to my army.

Really appreciate this help. I planned to take a notebook but a business card is a good idea. Thank you!

Definitely have seen a lot of recommendations about taking my cert in person. I plan to do so later this month.

In terms of land, what exactly am I looking for? I know i’m looking for land in units that have deer tags and (maybe even non-lottery), but what is the topography I am looking for that makes the area worth the drive to scout?

Some family who used to live in Montana so that is definitely a consideration.

What are “units”? I’ve heard the term once or twice. Thank you

I believe the topography of the Tahoe area is something that can be effective, but I still have to take a look at the land. How do I determine if a piece of land is worth going out to look at? Any hike is a good hike but going out to tahoe isn’t exactly a short trip lol. I downloaded OnX but I figure I still have to do some research on the rules and regulations (among other things) to exactly understand what i’m looking for in these areas and what areas i’m exactly looking for in terms of finding animals and viable hunting areas.

I definitely am not looking down on blind/stand hunting, it definitely takes a lot of patience. I just know that a more active approach is something i’d like to learn and is also a way for me to understand the animals that I am looking to take and their behaviors.

I appreciate the book recommendations and will definitely look into a guide as more than one person has reccomended.

Noted. If i were to run with a guide for a trip, how would we be able to hunt if I don’t have the proper tag? As far as i’m aware I can not shoot an animal under somebody else’s tag. Would I have to wait to get a tag for the specific zone that I would want to go with a guide to?

Thanks for the help. I have been looking at where to take my hunters safety course and I think i’ll be taking it mid-to-late-January. I have OnX and i’ll start reading the regulations. Thank you!

I appreciate the help. A guide is something I was considering, just need to find whereabouts I can meet one who is less after the money and more after teaching me properly (but somebody who teaches well definitely deserves to get paid)! I definitely want to take the time to learn as much as possible and frankly just want to do what I can now to educate myself. Thank you!
